Okay, so here is the deal. The 1st person to answer this blog gets to
ask me any question, no matter how crazy, inappropriate, sexual, or just
random, and I promise to answer it 100% truthfully. The catch is now
that person is now tagged and the next person gets to ask him/her any
question, etc. etc. This should be fun. Keep it in good spirits and
fun!!

well at least they let you finish the coarse!!!!!

welcome

Nobody wants to debate god so if this is your decision then until you
seek a higher ground and not a debate, then the christians will do as
instructed and that is: do not argue with a fool in his folly or he
shall be as the fool. This only starts something that will never end. We
don't have to defend the higher power no do we have to debate it with
you. I mean this in no disrespect as not all of us were put here to do
any certian thing as the other. Not all of us were put here to believe
as well as some of us were put here to do right by god as best we can. I
can go on and on why I feel like I do but that is a complete waste of my
time.

you can google all your information like I just did there in that page.
democrats vs republican

"Vote-Smart" is the premier, non-partison organization in a America
dedicating to collecting and disseminating objective data to enable
voters in America to be as informed of possible in their voting. To
obtain the ratings for the parties as described here, and so provide
informed answers to the question or how similar or dissimilar the
Democratic and Republican parties are, the most recent reports for every
special interest group listed at www.Vote-Smart.Org were reviewed and
aggregated into averages according to each group's individual ratings of
the Congressmembers of the two parties. The whole purpose of these
groups is to know the two parties inside and out, to try to influence
the votes of their congress members, and to keep score as to which
congress members their own groups members should be told to reward and
supported and which which need to be opposed and punished.
Job Growth Rates
under recent presidents:
President % Growth
in # years
Johnson (D) 3.8% in 5
Carter (D) 3.1% in 4
Clinton (D) 2.4% in 8
Kennedy (D) 2.3% in 3
Nixon (R) 2.3% in 5
Reagan (R) 2.1% in 8
Bush-I (R) 0.6% in 4
( Bureau of Labor Statistics )
Of particular interest is whether the average ratings for the
parties fall above or below fifty percent for each group -- that is,
whether the party votes with the wishes of a given special interest
group more often than not or whether the party votes against that
group's wishes more often than it does with them.
After combining these ratings in this way, the question then
becomes whether any difference can be seen in the way the two parties
vote. Do the numbers reveal any useful information about the parties'
voting patterns? Is there a reason for those disillusioned with the
political process to hope?
And the answer? A profound, emphatic, resounding, definite: YES!
Yes, there is a huge chasm between the way most of the members
of the two major parties vote on many issues. Vote-Smart.org lists 107
different ratings. Of these, fully 93 found the parties stratified on
either side of the fifty percent mark, one supporting a particular
interest, and the other opposed to that same interest.
Furthermore, not only did an overwhelming majority of groups
find the parties to be on opposite sides of their issues, but the
difference between their positions is normally huge. The average spread
between the ratings that any group assigned to the parties was 55
percentage points. The parties do not simply differ slightly on the
issues-- they often differ like night and day.
What's most instructive are the particular groups that found the
parties to be voting with their wishes. Looking at those groups,
together with their self-described missions produces a composite view of
the positions of the parties.
I have not updated the figures on this page since the year 2002,
but there hasn't been any need to do so because the purpose of this page
is to highlight the contrast between the two parties, and if anything
that contrast has only grown in the period since this study was made.
The most glaring disparity between the parties is regarding
organized labor. Sixteen different labor unions provide ratings of
Congressmembers' voting, and all 16-- every last one-- found that the
Democratic Party voted in favor of the interests of the working men and
women that they represent, while the Republican Party voted against
those interests. In fact, the most common rating individual Democrats
in Congress received from labor unions was a perfect 100 percent--
voting with that union every time. In stark contrast, the most common
rating any individual Republican received was a perfect zero, never
voting with that union even once. For example, of the 261 Democrats in
Congress that the United Food and Commercial Workers union rated in
2001, 206 received a perfect 100 percent rating. In contrast, of the
269 Republicans in Congress the UFCW rated in 2001, 232 received an
unqualified zero. It's as if the Republican Party has declared outright
warfare on working people in this country.
"But what about business?" might come the rejoinder. When that
general charge has been expressed more narrowly, it translates to: "The
Democrats and the Republicans are just two branches of the Business
Party." The facts show how totally untrue that charge is, and coming at
this matter from opposite points of view, business and labor both say
the same thing, i.e. that Republicans favor business interests, while
Democrats favor workers interests.
Five different special interest groups are listed as
representing business on Vote-Smart.org, and all five found the
Republicans to vote with their interests while the Democrats vote
against them.
As demonstrated by their voting records, Democrats are viewed by
working people, women, seniors, African-Americans, Hispanics and
consumers as the advocates for just and equitable working conditions,
for civil rights, for protecting the environment, for reproductive
freedom, for gun control, for education, for public health, and for
humanitarian social policy.
And the Republicans? The Republicans are viewed by big business
opponents of taxes on business, or those who benefit most from business
and opponents of government services to any entity other than
businesses, as services require taxation to pay for them. Perhaps they
can best be defined by what they're against, rather than what they're
for: they are against all those groups and all those social aims that
the Democrats serve.

Good luck in your search!
